Discuss the advantages‚ strengths‚ disadvantages and weaknesses of a positivist approach to social sciences The profusion of use and multifariousness of meaning of the word positivism results in a need for any essay on the subject to first give its own precise definition for its use of the term‚ distinguishing its particular context from its use in other contexts.
